<span>The movement around the axis of the earth occurs once every 24 hours and it does so from a start point to finish in a term we can call complete revolution and it does this by day by day turn, every 24 hours. The yearly circle where the earth moves round the sun , however is a 365 transformation around the sun or ecliptic plane. It does this with the earth tilted at 23.5 degrees, off the opposite line to the ecliptic plane.</span>

A 55.0-kg skydiver drew falls for a period of time before opening his parachute. what is his kinetic energy when he reaches a ve

Jlenok [28]

Mass (m)=55kg

acceleration (a)=9.81 m/s^2, this is the acceleration due to gravity.

initial velocity=0m/s. The skydiver doesn’t start with any speed because she is on the plane or helicopter.

final velocity=16m/s This is the velocity (speed) the skydiver reaches

The equation we use is KE=.5mv^2
Kinetic energy=.5 mass x velocity^2

KE=.5(55kg)(16m/s)^2
KE=.5(55kg)(256m/s)
KE=.5(14080J)

J=Joules

KE=7040J

Kinetic energy is 7040 Joules (J)

Hope this helps

A major feature of the solar system is that as planets get farther away from the sun they, _________ a. Are warmer b. Have fewer

defon

D.
Have a longer revolution time since they definitely do not get warmer, They do not have fewer moons (Jupiter has about 100 and earth has 1) they are not smaller in diameter (Earth v Jupiter)
